The CFM module works with the following classes of object:
Common Return Values
CFM_invalid_tag - The rule and/or preset_rule tags are invalid.
CFM_value_not_found - No rule of that name could be found.

'User ref' allows the caller to associate some tag value to a CFMHowConfigured record, and retrieve it again.

| char ** | how_configured | |||
| ) |
Finds the revision of the given item that is configured when the given revision rule is used to configure the given item. Also returns a textual representation of which entry/entries in the rule caused the particular revision to be configured.
If no revision of the item is configured by the rule, NULLTAG is returned as the configured revision.
By default, this call is not aware of nested effectivity. If you want to make it aware of nested effectivity, set the preference CFMNestedEffectivityOverride to -1.
Callers that are aware of nested effectivity should use CFM_item_ask_configured_base instead of this. Callers that cannot handle nested effectivity, but would like to try, can call CFM_item_ask_configured_nested.

| char ** | how_configured | |||
| ) |
Finds the revision of the given item that is configured when the given revision rule is used to configure the given item. Also returns a textual representation of which entry/entries in the rule caused the particular revision to be configured.
If no revision of the item is configured by the rule, NULLTAG is returned as the configured revision.
This call should be used by clients that are aware of nested effectivity, and are generating revision rule modifiers.

Finds the revision of the given item that is configured when the given revision rule is used to configure the given item. Also returns a textual representation of which entry/entries in the rule caused the particular revision to be configured.
If no revision of the item is configured by the rule, NULLTAG is returned as the configured revision.
This call is different from CFM_item_ask_configured in that it attempts to resolve nested effectivity configuration internally.Note that in the absence of product structure this is only an approximation of the configuration. It cannot handle multiple revisions per product structure.
This call should be used by clients that cannot handle nested effectivity.

| int | n_candidates, | |||
| tag_t * | candidates, | |||
| tag_t * | latest | |||
| ) |
For use in conjunction with Incremental Change (IC) configuration. With IC you may find you have 'competing' states of data (e.g. several occ datas setting transform for the same occurrence). Where you have multiple such states configured, you will want to know which is 'latest'. For each configured IC revision CFM_item_ask_how_configured will have given you back a CFMHowConfigured record describing how that revision was configured. You then assemble the tags of those CFMHowConfigureds into an array, and pass them to this function, which will pass back the tag of the 'latest' one according to this rev rule.

| entry | (I) Tag of the override entry |
| folder | (O) Tag of the override folder |
Sets the override folder for the given override entry.
Set the override folder to be NULLTAG to indicate a "place-holding" override folder, which can be used in Teamcenter Engineering UIF to allow non-privileged users to set an override folder for a Revision Rule. (Whilst empty, this override entry will have no effect on configuration.)

| entry | (I) Tag of the entry to delete from the rule |
| CFM_API int CFM_rule_delete_modifier | ( | tag_t | modifier | ) |
Deletes a revision rule modifier. For performance reasons, it's recommended that you use CFM_rule_set_modifier to ensure that your revision rule isn't referencing this modifier. It shouldn't do any harm if you don't do this, but it may slow down subsequent configuration calls.
Restrictions:
Only use this function on modifiers created by a call to CFM_rule_generate_modifier. Do not use it on modifiers generated on a BOMLine. Doing so will interfere with BOM level configuration management.
| modifier | (I) |

| tag_t * | items, | |||

| tag_t * | last_itemrev, | |||
| tag_t * | last_modifier | |||
| ) |
Applies nested effectivity to the given set of configuration items, and returns the configured revision of hte last item and the last modifier (which does not necessarily belong to the last item). It assumes that these items represent a partial path down a product structure. Any non-configuration items in the list have no effect on the result. The last modifier can then be used to further configure sub-structure.
The override_parent flag indicates whether the first mapping is allowed to override non-null settings in the parent configuration. This flag only affects the first item in the array. This will be set to true if the first item is not the root of the product structure. It is only set to false for product structure root items when we want the values stored in the revision rule itself to take precedence over the root mapping.
| rule | (I) |

| tag_t | itemrev, | |||
| logical | override_parent, | |||
| tag_t | old_modifier, | |||
| tag_t * | new_modifier | |||
| ) |
Applies the revision rule to the item revision's effectivity mappings in order to generate a revision rule modifier that can be applied to the rule using CFM_rule_set_modifier. If no mapping applies then new_modifier will be returned as NULLTAG.
The override_parent flag indicates whether the mapping is allowed to override non-null settings in the parent configuration. This is usually set to true. It is only set to false for product structure roots when we want the values stored in the revision rule itself to take precedence over the root mapping.
If old_modifier is input as NULLTAG then this function will create a new modifier for new_modifier. If old_modifier is input as non-NULLTAG then this function will update the existing modifier.
Note that if old_modifier is not NULLTAG, but new_modifier is returned as NULLTAG, then it is up to the caller to delete the old_modifier object.

| tag_t ** | itemrevs, | |||
| tag_t ** | modifiers | |||
| ) |
Applies nested effectivity to the given set of items. It assumes that these items represent a path down a product structure. It will return the configured revision of each item and the modifier that was generated against that itemrev. This modifier can then be used to further configure sub-structure.
The override_parent flag indicates whether the first mapping is allowed to override non-null settings in the parent configuration. This flag only affects the first item in the array. This will be set to true if the first item is not the root of the product structure. It is only set to false for product structure root items when we want the values stored in the revision rule itself to take precedence over the root mapping.

| int | n_entries, | |||

| tag_t * | group_entry | |||
| ) |
Groups together all the given entries (which must be in the rule) into a group entry. The group entry is placed into the rule at the former position of the first in the given list of entries.
Restrictions:
Only working and status entries may be grouped. All the entries in a group must be of the same type, i.e. all working or all status. For status entries, all must use the same criteria to decide 'latest' (release date, effective date, or effective unit number). For example, it is not possible to decide between a release date and a unit number which one is latest.
Return Values:
CFM_entry_is_not_groupable - Only working and status entries may be grouped.
CFM_entry_incompatible_w_group - All entries in the group must be the same type and use the same criterion for latest.
